Answer:

The flavouring in the aspirin, passage time and excessive dose– can cause the alleviation of Jeff's headache.

Explanation:

Jeff  took two different flavoured aspirin to treat his headache but his headache alleviated after taking the fourth dose of the aspirin. The chemicals used to add the flavor in the aspirin might have shown positive result in Jeff's body. Jeff had taken four doses of aspirin which might have also shown additive effect in the body and resulted in the alleviation of headache . Time had also passed since the consumption of first dose so that might have decreased his headache.

Further explanation:

  • Aspirin is also known as acetyl salicylic acid. This drug is used to treat headache, fever and pain.  Inflammation and disease like kwashiorkor can be treated by aspirin.
  • Aspirin has an anti coagulating property that is given to heart attack patients and can also work as analgesic.  
  • Aspirin must not be taken on an empty stomach. If taken it can cause stomach ulcers and stomach bleeding.
  • If aspirin is taken frequently it can alleviate pain rapidly but may cause some side effects and its excessive dosage can increase the symptoms of the disease.
  • Many flavouring agents are also used in aspirin. They are used to add flavors, smell and may also increase the positive effect of aspirin.
  • Hence, it can be concluded that Jeff's headache was alleviated by the excessive dosage, frequent time passage and the presence of the flavouring agent.

The only statement true among all given statement is-

Regular health insurance will not pay for alternative medicine services.

Explanation:

More than a quarter of adults in the US are consuming some form of alternative medicine. They are most likely to pay them from their savings. Alternatives though find a vast variety of use but are not covered under regular health insurance.

This can be considered as the most important reason as to why people hesitate to choose alternatives over traditional medicinal practises. This has ensured the survival of traditional allopathy even though it is costly than alternative medicine.

However, there is an increasing perception among people that alternatives are more effective and popular. But the dominance of traditional medicines won't go unless the alternatives are included in the health insurance segment.
